Madrid Grid Area Buildings + Reachable Endpoints for Given RF Transmitter Location and Parameters, with and without RISs Installation.

<p>1- The obstacles_save folder contains arrays defining the vertices locations (x,y) of buildings in the considered area in Madrid Grid.</p> <p>A transmitter is placed at the center of a square at location [600, 900]. Possible receiver (or relay trasnceivers) locations are defined as the vertices (i.e., corners) of buildings (from previous list). The goal of the simulation is to find how many hops are needed to reach, if possible, each location from the previously mentioned list of vertices, assuming a maximum allowed path loss value of 90 dB between any two consecutive hops.&nbsp;</p> <p>2- The arrays in no_ris specify the vertices reachable within N sucessive hops, when no RIS is installed in the area.</p> <p>3- Similarly, the arrays in double_ris give the coordinates of vertices reachable with N hops when a two RISs are installed in the middle square(as shown in related paper).</p> <p>The RIS beamforming gain is 20 dB (in Table 1 in the paper the gain should be 20 not 15 dB).</p>

MTAB3D: a 3-D velocity model for absolute hypocenter location in southern Iberia and westernmost Mediterranean.

<p>The Trans-Alboran Shear Zone is one of the most seismically active areas in the westernmost Mediterranean, where a wide variety of tectonic domains have developed within the context of oblique convergence between Eurasia and Africa plates. In this region, earthquakes occur close to seismogenic structures, some of them large enough to cause damaging events. In addition, the diversity of tectonic domains implies a lateral variation of seismic wave propagation, which could affect the hypocenter reliability if not addressed during the location procedure. In this work, we present mTAB3D, a new 3D P-wave velocity model that accounts for the lateral heterogeneity of our study area. The new catalogs computed with our model help us to infer possible genetic relations between seismicity and source faults within our study area and can be used as an additional tool when looking into prior seismic sequences.</p>

Low-Cost Sensors and Multitemporal Remote Sensing for Operational Turbidity Monitoring in an East African Wetland Environment - Measurements and Locations

<p>Many wetlands in East Africa are farmed and wetland reservoirs are used for irrigation, livestock, and fishing. Water quality and agriculture have a mutual influence on each other. Turbidity is a principal indicator of water quality and can be used for, otherwise, unmonitored water sources. Low-cost turbidity sensors improve in situ coverage and enable community engagement. The availability of high spatial resolution satellite images from the Sentinel-2 multispectral instrument and of bio-optical models, such as the Case 2 Regional CoastColor (C2RCC) processor, has fostered turbidity modeling. However, these models need local adjustment, and the quality of low-cost sensor measurements is debated. We tested the combination of both technologies to monitor turbidity in small wetland reservoirs in Kenya. We sampled ten reservoirs with low-cost sensors and a turbidimeter during five Sentinel-2 overpasses. Low-cost sensor calibration resulted in an R&sup2; of 0.71. The models using the C2RCC C2X-COMPLEX (C2XC) neural nets with turbidimeter measurements (R&sup2; = 0.83) and with low-cost measurements (R&sup2; = 0.62) performed better than the turbidimeter-based C2X model. The C2XC models showed similar patterns for a one-year time series, particularly around the turbidity limit set by Kenyan authorities. This shows that both the data from the commercial turbidimeter and the low-cost sensor setup, despite sensor uncertainties, could be used to validate the applicability of C2RCC in the study area, select the better-performing neural nets, and adapt the model to the study site. We conclude that combined monitoring with low-cost sensors and remote sensing can support wetland and water management while strengthening community-centered approaches.</p> <p>The provided dataset includes a point shapefile with the studied reservoirs in central Kenya and a data table with the sampling date (Sentinel-2 overpass plus/minus one day), low-cost sensor setup number, reservoir ID, sampling location within the reservoir, the voltage measurements of the three respective low-cost sensor heads for sensor setups A and B, the averaged voltage, and the turbidimeter measured turbidity value in nephelometric turbidity units (NTU).</p> <p>The study is available in (please cite):</p> <div> <div>Steinbach, S., Rienow, A., Chege, M.W., Dedring, N., Kipkemboi, W., Thiong&rsquo;o, B.K., Zwart, S.J., Nelson, A., 2024.

<p><strong>The World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) Global Lightning Climatology (WGLC) and time series</strong></p> <p>This repository contains global lightning stroke density and stroke power calculated from georeferenced stroke count data from the World Wide Lightning Location Network <a href="http://wwlln.net">WWLLN</a>. The real-time raw stroke count data were reprocessed by WWLLN to remove artifacts and improve geolocation, which resulted in the "AE" georeferenced and timestamped stroke count data. These data were then gridded at 0.5 degree 5 arc-minute and hourly resolution, converted into density, and corrected for detection efficiency using the WWLLN global gridded detection efficiency maps. Mean, median, and standard deviation of stroke power are also provided at 30-minute resolution. The corrected hourly rasters were then aggregated into daily and monthly totals and into a multi-year monthly mean climatology.

Towards new demography proxies and regional chronologies: Radiocarbon dates from archaeological contexts located in the Czech Republic covering the period between 10,000 BC and AD 1250 (dataset)

<p>The dataset was created within the project &ldquo;<em>Land use, social transformations and woodland in Central European Prehistory. Modelling approaches to human-environment interactions</em>&rdquo; funded by the Czech Science Foundation (19-20970Y). This dataset represents the largest and the most comprehensive collection of archaeological radiocarbon dates from the Czech Republic to date. The dataset offers 1579 samples from 347 archaeological sites dating from Early Mesolithic (10 000 BC) to Medieval Period (AD 1250). Published in a simple spreadsheet format, the database offers researchers a quick tool for further analyses. It is important to highlight that dates we collected originated only from archaeological contexts, which means that we have excluded some radiocarbon dates produced through palaeoecological research without a direct relationship to past human activities, such as pollen records or samples from fossilized trees in river beds. The dataset is intended to be used for demographic modelling of population numbers during periods without written records, i.e. prehistory.</p>

ALS-based DEMs (100 cm): the dynamics of the prehistoric communities located in the Mostiștea Valley and Danube Plain (between Oltenița and Călărași)

<p>This dataset is part of a larger project on the dynamics of the prehistoric communities located in the Mostiștea Valley and Danube Plain (between Oltenița and Călărași), supervised by&nbsp;the ArchaeoSciences Division of the Research Institute of the University of Bucharest (ICUB)&nbsp; and Kiel University (Germany), in partnership with HOGENT, University of Applied Sciences and Arts (Belgium), Museum of Bucharest, Museum of the Lower Danube Călărași, Museum of Gumelnița Civilization Oltenița, and &quot;Vasile P&acirc;rvan&quot; Institute of Archaeology (Romania), under the &quot;Sultana School of Archaeology&quot; initiative.</p> <p>Spatial data play a crucial role in archaeological research, and orthophotos, digital elevation models, and 3D models are frequently used for the mapping, documentation, and monitoring of archaeological sites. Thanks to the availability of compact and low-cost uncrewed airborne vehicles, the use of UAV-based photogrammetry is well matured in this field over the last two decades. More recently, compact airborne systems are also available that allow the recording of thermal data, multispectral data, and airborne laser scanning. For this project, various platforms and sensors are applied at the Chalcolithic archaeological sites in the Mostiștea Basin and Danube Valley (Southern Romania). By analyzing the performance of the systems and the resulting data, insight is given into the selection of the appropriate system for the right application. This analysis requires thorough knowledge of data acquisition and data processing as well. As both laser scanning and photogrammetry typically result in very large amounts of data, a special focus is also required on the storage and publication of the data. Hence, the objective of this project is to provide a full overview of various aspects of 3D data acquisition for UAV-based mapping. Based on the conclusions drawn in our related publications, it is stated that photogrammetry and laser scanning can result in data with similar geometrical properties when acquisition parameters are appropriately set. On the one hand, however, the used ALS-based system outperforms the photogrammetric platforms in terms of operational time and the area covered. On the other hand, conventional photogrammetry provides flexibility that might be required for very low-altitude flights, or emergency mapping. Furthermore, as the used ALS sensor only provides a geometrical representation of the topography, photogrammetric sensors are still required to obtain true color- or false color composites of the surface. Lastly, the variety of data, like pre- and post-rendered raster data, 3D models, and point clouds, requires the implementation of multiple methods for the online publication of data. Various client-side and server-side solutions are presented to make the data available for other researchers.</p>
